Palindrome
A palindrome is a word or phrase which when read backwards gives the same word or words i.e able was i ere i saw Elba.
Hate to be picky but...... you mean e.g. not i.e. Danny
or... sit on a potato pan, Otis / "Naomi, sex at noon taxes", I moan / never odd or even
Grazie
I think these words are called anadromes
Salty is right! Palindrome reads the same backwards and forwards. Anadrome makes a different word when read from the back as in Alison's example.
Well done Salty
I had hoped Alison would come back and acknowledge or answers, but with a record of 800 questions and 45 answers, probably not!
is an airdrome a word that goes in one ear and out the other?
